Default Pics from Johns Garage

Here are some pics John took of the current state of his garage and car.
The Garage.

Notice a little mud residue in the housing leftover from the flooding.

Droppin' the Tranny for ACT Clutch replacement.



The engine is sitting a little lower in the engine compartment.



The Old and New Lightened Flywheel.

The Old and New Clutch plate and Pressure plate.

John's mechanical skills have come a LONG way.

Was he doing ANY of the actual work?

I couldn't do this myself, Tim helped BIG time. Thanks Tim! I was doing a bunch of the work thankyou and my neck is killing me from all the time under the car

The car is about 2 feet in the air and the engine only 1 1/2 feet. It was a big job but Tim and I working from about 9-3:30 got the trans out and as soon as I get all the parts I need it should go back together a little faster.

Tom if you are coming up bring some money . I'll sell you 2 snow tires and some other stuff I have around the garage.

I was in there working tonight and cleaned up the housing. I also came to the conclusion that the clutch and pp that I bought off of ebay was not ACT--neither part. The ACT 6 puck doesn't have any springs and this one does. I saved $100 bucks though

I made a mess because I didn't flush the cooling system until now and I couldn't capture all the water so a little went on the rug, sorry . I emptied the block and the radiator.
